Abstract

The purpose of the article is to summarize information about the anthropological material from the excavations of P. I. Havlyuk, which was found at the ulychi settlement near the village Sazhki in 1970-1978 and its introduction into scientific circulation. The research methodology is represented by: the principle of historicism, system approach, methods of logic, grouping, comparative-historical, statistical and problem-chronological principle. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that it summarizes information about the found human skeletons belonging to the ulyches who died as a result of an attack on the settlement during the first stage of its existence in the 10th century. Today, only part of the preserved human skeletons from the excavations in Sazhki are available for detailed anthropological research. To write the article, unpublished materials from the personal fund of PI Havlyuk in the Vinnytsya Regional Museum of History and Nature and the State Archive of the Vinnytsia Region were used, namely: field diaries, manuscripts, and epistolary heritage. The scientific reports on excavations stored in the Scientific Archive of the Institute of Archeology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in Kyiv were also included in the work. Information is provided on the position of the discovered skeletons, their probable signs of death, and personal items found among or near the bones. The skeletons are systematized by age category. For a significant part of the dead, their gender has been determined. Conclusions. It was possible to establish the position of the skeletons of 94 deceased. Among the dead, according to P. I. Havlyuk, there are signs: wounds; tied limbs and burnt. The inventory material was found in 33 deceased persons aged two years and older.
